Can't say for sure but I had probs with my cruise control and various other of the electronic "gizmos" on my BMW which turned out to be caused by a dodgy ABS sensor. Everything worked fine once it had been replaced. Sounds suspiciously as if you have something similar! |

Just a thought but have you changed any tyres recently? A friend of mine had similar strange things happening just after having some new tyres and found that one was a different size. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto

As said above sounds like an ABS sensor fault |

Could possibly be a wheel bearing, causing the sensor to misread. Common fault on the Disco 2 (cured by replacing the BCU - early models were over-sensitive!) but I haven't heard of it on the FR2. Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone

As with all modern cars, get it plugged into a diagnostic computer which should show the fault. Gone are the days of trying to guess - well nearly * GONE. GS TD4 Manual MY2013. Orkney Grey with privacy, cold and clearview packs, armrests (a must!) and a spoiler.

Probably one or the other, but you were sensible to replace both. The sensor gap is very sensitive, so if the wheel bearing starts to allow a bit of play the sensor can mis-read. Glad it's sorted! Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone
